Adult film star Stormy Daniels went public to discuss her alleged affair with Donald Trump a decade before he was elected president — and now let the fireworks begin. A Trump attorney is refuting statements from the interview, while Daniels has defended her credibility.

“Within hours of Daniels’ highly anticipated “60 Minutes” interview – during which she said threats made her agree to take $130,000 from Michael Cohen, Trump’s attorney, to remain silent – a lawyer representing Cohen said he believed she had fabricated a story about being threatened in 2011.

The back-and-forth showed no sign of abating Monday as Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, has defended her credibility while embarking on an aggressive campaign to break free of a nondisclosure agreement signed in the waning days of the 2016 presidential election. Daniels has sued the president in an effort to get out of the agreement, making her one of three women moving forward with court cases relating to Trump’s history with women.”
